That's is funny, Doug!!! 

Thankfully, that is not our experience here.  Hubby & I do all kinds of outdoor sports like hiking, riding mountain bikes, boating, water ski, snorkel & scuba dive, golf, camping, and yes, even bird watch!  On vacations, we have
even gone snow skiing. (Ok, we were rather few in number on the mountian in 6-degree snow conditions! )

This did remind me of boating here in Texas; the perception is that black folks don't have boats, because we are not seen using them during the HOT summer, full sun/mid-daytime.  Its not that we don't have boats, many here do.  The difference is this: while they are out there to get a tan in the blazing sun, they trailer-up by the dinner hour, whereas we are just arriving at the boat ramp to launch for an evening cruise!

...now that you mention it pommom...most of my bad experiences have been when i've been by myself...(like in the video).  i guess a lone black man...is a bit more intimidating for some reason...:o(

I can't see it here at work but I just wanted to say Congrats to you and the Colts!  I will be cheering for them this weekend!

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown
